I've just reinstalled my ubuntu desktop..

when I tried to see some man pages about standard c library function like printf with the commend..

man 2 printf

it says there in no entry ..
I guess I need some packages related to documentation...

What do i need then?

I'd appreciated...

Stupid question, but aren't the C standard library manpages in 3?

man 3 printf

EDIT: These manpages are in manpages-dev :)
